Thinking of the important things he was going to do, Xian Liao immediately became energetic.
So when Bei Yanming came in, he happened to see a good show.
"Just stand there!" Xian Liao was still giving orders to Bei Yanming, "Watch carefully, from now on I will be the Lord of the North, yours is mine, and mine is still mine!"
Bei Yanming's eyes turned cold. Who is he? The powerful Emperor Ming! Apart from anything else, stealing his queen in front of him and saying such nonsense to him is simply asking for death! But Xian Liao said fearlessly: "What's that look in your eyes? Why are you walking forward? Stand still! Look! Shout for me! Shout 'The Lord of the North is mighty'!"
Bei Yanming would listen to him? What a joke! Xian Liao saw that he was still coming over and had drawn the long sword from his waist, and he began to feel that something was wrong.
"Hey? You, you, you... why aren't you listening? Get back! Get back! Oh my god!"
He was so panicked that when Bei Yanming grabbed his hair and threw him to the ground, he suddenly realized that his puppet Gu was no longer effective against Bei Yanming...
Bei Yanming was furious and cut off his weapon with a sword.
Xian Liao's wails spread throughout the palace, and then he fainted.
"Take him away, don't let him die!" Bei Yanming said in a cold voice.
Looking at the Queen of the Underworld again, although she was robbed, she did not cry, make a fuss or move. Even in such a bloody scene, she was as unresponsive as a wooden stake.
Bei Yanming knew in his heart that she might have been drugged, but that didn't matter. His feelings for Queen Ming weren't as deep as they were for the Imperial Concubine anyway.
"Come here, pass on my order. The Queen of the Underworld has suddenly fallen ill. From now on, she must stay indoors and concentrate on recuperating. All palace affairs, big or small, will be handed over to the Imperial Concubine to take care of!"
After saying this, he turned and walked out without even looking at the Queen of the Underworld.
In fact, the Queen of the Underworld was happy at this moment. At least she didn't know that she was imprisoned, nor did she know that the palace she had worked so hard to build had fallen into the hands of her mortal enemy.
But now she has been put under the puppet poison by Xian Liao, so she can neither speak nor move, which is a good thing for these palace servants.
In the past, she treated the maids harshly. Today, seeing that she had lost power, they took the opportunity to deduct her food, bathe her with cold water, and not light mosquito coils for her at night...
This was nothing. She often beat and scolded the eunuchs. Now she was like a wooden stake. The eunuchs were also daring. Although they had no tools to commit crimes, it did not stop them from having fun...
Anyway, she held the title of Queen of the Underworld, and Bei Yanming never looked at her again.
While Bei Yanming was recuperating, Bei Yuanzheng came back. Su Bei parted ways with him on the road, and the two went to Xian Country.
In fact, Bei Yuan insisted that they come with him, because the antidote had been obtained, and the Queen of Hell had to give them rewards whether they were willing or not. Su Bei was actually quite tempted, after all, the North was rich, and rewards were inevitable.
But Chu Younan refused to do so. Bei Yuanzheng took good care of Su Bei along the way. Su Bei even went to Miaojiang to ask for medicine for Bei Yuanzheng. Bei Yuanzheng risked his own life to protect Su Bei. No matter how you look at it, this was a prelude to sparks!
He must nip this little hint in the bud!
So he urged Su Bei, saying that the treasures of Xian Country must be richer, so it would be better to go treasure hunting as soon as possible.
So Bei Yuan came back alone. He was confused when he came back.
"Father, you're awake!" Bei Yuanzheng's voice was full of true feelings. For him, whether or not to take the reward was secondary. What was important was that Bei Yanming woke up.
It was his true feelings that were the only warm sunshine in Bei Yanming's cold heart, "Yuanzheng, why have you lost so much weight?"
"It's fine for me, as long as my father wakes up." Bei Yuanzheng said, handing over the antidote he had asked for. "This is the antidote I asked for for my father, but it seems it can't be used now."
"I'm glad you have this intention!" Bei Yanming was moved by his filial piety, "Father will grant you ten cities and ten thousand taels of gold!"
Bei Yuanzheng thanked him and kept the antidote.
At the same time, Su Bei and Chu Younan had already arrived in Xian Country.
It is late summer and the wind is cool.
Xian Country really lives up to its name. The whole country looks leisurely and relaxed. When Su Bei and Chu Younan arrived, Yun Xi and Xian Ren were having breakfast.
It was already the end of the morning hour, and Xianren, as a regent, was not attending court but was eating breakfast here?!
I don’t have any special thoughts about Su Bei. I just think the pace of life here is quite slow and comfortable.
But Chu Younan felt a little uncomfortable.
Xian State is now a vassal state of Wu State, so he is naturally responsible for the people's livelihood here. Seeing that Xian Ren is not paying attention at all, he is very anxious.
"What time is it? You are still eating breakfast?!" Chu Younan's face looked a little gloomy.
Xianren turned around and asked the maid, "What time is it?"
"Your Highness, it is only the end of the noon hour." The maid was also leisurely.
Xianren looked at Chu Younan seriously, "Your Majesty, it is only the end of the Chen hour now. Let's have breakfast together. There is still one hour before the court session. We still have time."
Chu Younan was almost stunned, but Su Bei burst out laughing, "This is called jet lag. Come on, I haven't seen Yun Xi for a while, it's a good time to catch up."
Chu Younan had no choice but to sit down.
When he was in the capital, the court was almost over by this time, but he still suppressed his discomfort and did not speak.
But Xianren's next sentence made him almost unable to sit still.
"Go tell them that we have a distinguished guest today, so we won't be attending court. We'll discuss this tomorrow!"
Chu Younan almost vomited blood.
But Su Bei put a steamed dumpling into his bowl and said, "Eat it. I'm hungry again after such a bumpy ride!"
It seems that Su Bei quite likes this kind of life. Chu Younan thought that this trip was mainly for relaxation, so he tried hard to endure his discomfort.
The key is that the food in Xian Country tastes really good.
As Chu Younan ate, his expression relaxed.
"Isn't this steamed dumpling delicious? It was made by Princess Xian herself!" Xianren strongly recommended the plate of steamed dumplings.
Su Bei looked at Yun Xi with appreciation, "Not bad, you can cook now!"
Yun Xi was a little embarrassed. "Actually, the maid mixed the filling and rolled the dough. I just... pinched it..."
Su Bei had a look of understanding.
But seeing Xianren looking at the plate of steamed dumplings with admiration in his eyes and praising it constantly, she felt a little jealous.
"Sister, your cooking skills are the best. I've eaten so many steamed dumplings, but yours is the most beautiful. I want to eat them just by looking at them." Xianren looked at Yun Xi with a smile in his eyes.
Su Bei turned to look at Chu Younan and whispered, "Why does she sound so nice when she calls you sister?"
Yes, it’s sweet and spicy, exactly the taste that her brother Nan Nan doesn’t have.
There was some fear in Chu Younan's eyes. She asked him to call her sister?
